Wow, what an honor! Remember these dreamy blue hues from our blog? This shoot was picked up by one of our favorite bloggers, Hey Wedding Lady… and then featured on Aisle Society! As an exquisitely curated collection of wedding industry trends, Aisle Society is a go-to resource for engaged couples. Their streamlined collection makes it easy to browse wedding inspirations for hours on end.

We’re thrilled that this ethereal styled shoot made the cut. With intricate embroidery details, modern acrylic tableware and signage, and lush florals, this vendor team crafted a truly bespoke vignette. Thanks to Taylor Lord Photography for the beautiful images.

We are honored to join the Aisle Society ranks! Thanks to a talented vendor team for executing a stunning inspiration shoot. It was a treat to host it here at The Empire Room, the top wedding venue Dallas has to offer.

Thank you to all the vendors who collaborated to make this event happen at our DFW styled shoot venue and wedding venue. Brides, take a good look—this styled shoot is full of ideas you can incorporate into your real wedding. From custom macarons to a fabulous mimosa bar, the inspiration is endless. We can’t wait to see how you put a unique spin on details for your big day at The Empire Room.

It’s no secret at our Dallas wedding venue that blue is in this season! From pastel Pantone serenity to bright cobalts and dusty hues, blue is taking the wedding industry by storm. And it’s easy to see why! We are loving this new twist on feminine color palettes. Thanks to Katie Jane Photography, we had the opportunity to host a gorgeous styled shoot featuring some truly stunning wedding details in brunch-themed session.

Pretty braided hair, elegant lace, and pops of vibrant sapphire blue have our hearts aflutter. The earrings, blue glass, and charming plates tie blue hues together throughout the space, keeping a cohesive style across the board. Add a touch of handlettered calligraphy, adorable macarons, and flowers bursting with luscious greens to complete the look. Oh, and can we keep that beautiful mimosa bar around every day?

This shoot strikes the perfect balance between elegance and whimsy. The pops of cobalt keep this shoot fun and light, while all the carefully curated details elevant the event to an utterly elegant look.

Today we’re taking you behind the scenes for a peek into the other side of a professional styled shoot. While everything comes out gorgeously in the photos, you might be surprised to know there’s a lot of chaos behind the scenes to achieve stunning images! We love when event designers and planners choose The Empire Room as their Dallas styled shoot venue, and we’ve seen firsthand how the behind-the-scenes chaos (seemingly magically) transforms into an exquisitely executed photo shoot.

A styled shoot can last anywhere from a few hours, to most of the day. We advise giving ample time to set up, shoot, and clean up so you won’t feel rushed at any point during the process. The day usually starts with bits and pieces strewn about, until a creative eye brings them all together in flawlessly composed images.

The list of vendors can be as intimate or extensive as the hostess likes, but here are just a few of the people who often collaborate to make an event like this come together:

Photographer (a must-have! You can’t have a styled shoot without a photographer!)

Venue (whether indoors or out, venue is key to setting the tone for the shoot)

Event Designer / Wedding Planner

Florist

Models (although some shoots opt to focus on décor instead)

Hair and Makeup Artist

Vintage Rentals Service

Calligrapher

The soft palette, gorgeous models, and exquisite dresses in this Taylor Lord Photography styled photo shoot are sure to make any bride-to-be swoon. We love the unique test on a modern wedding style, and we think the feminine details and soft textures they brought to the table are simply stunning. Dresses inspired by 1920s beaded detailing have been taken to a new level of modern elegance, and the skirt and crop top combo is a sure winner for the spring season. Add a few hand-lettered calligraphy details, soft fabrics, and modern glass details, and this styled shoot is absolutely beautiful.
